Some warned Iona that this day would come.
Maybe the NCAA will suspend him.
I expect that Iona will double down on their poor decision.

The University of Louisville is now facing three more alleged NCAA violations stemming from the dust-up between former assistant coach Dino Gaudio and head coach Chris Mack.
The NCAA sent an amended notice of allegations to the school on Friday, including claims that staff members participated in impermissible on-court activities and created personalized videos for recruits, and that Mack violated the coach’s responsibility bylaw. In its amendment, the NCAA writes that the Complex Case Unit “could prescribe head coach restrictions” for Mack.
Mack recorded Gaudio threatening to go to the NCAA if he wasn’t paid his full salary after being dismissed, initiating an extortion claim. Gaudio pled guilty and received a year’s probation but the university also suspended Mack for the first six games of the season because of the accusations.
All told, Louisville now faces one Level I and six Level II violations, most stemming back to the FBI pay-to-play investigation into college basketball in 2013. In addition to Mack, former assistant coaches Jordan Fair and Kenny Johnson, along with former head coach Rick Pitino, all face possible sanctions.
The case has been turned over to the NCAA’s Independent Accountability Resolution Process. Louisville has yet to appear before the IARP and now has the ability to respond to the new allegations. In a statement announcing the amended Notice of Allegations, the university said, “Realistically, we are preparing for this process to continue through Spring of 2022.”
